Essaouira

FEBRUARY 09, 2016

When we went to Marrakech, we decided to go on a little excursion to the Atlantic coast, to Essaouira! Many riads and touring agencies offer excursions to the Altlas mountain villages and other nearby destinations but their prices are really expensive, at least for us. So, we choosed a bus company attached to the national railway, Supratour. It was really inexpensive, punctual, clean and the travel was comfortable. It felt so good to see the ocean again! Unfortunately, it was too cold and too dangerous to swimm in but I dipped my toes in the waves! This day in Essaouira was pure bliss. Fish tajine for mid day lunch, fresh sea urchins on the harbour, gorgeous landscapes and pretty streets for the menu, lovely people to meet and curious visions (camel on the beach. yep.) We loved it and would definitely recommend you to pop in and see the old "Mogador"!
